Paralysis Penguin
Game 10
I have a problem with how slow the parts are when talking to the glowing dog are. The animation looks laggy and the text boxes appear slow. The text within in it appear slow as well. It feels wrong.
Picking up those those things in the pool feels like a chore. Just a little of that would have been nice but not a lot like in the game. Just felt like a waste of the players time. The last part of this level with the glowing dog seemed interesting but went on for too long because of it also being laggy. The story in general still doesn’t make sense or has anything to stand on as of yet.
There’s a second area where I thought the game would pick up and certain characters from a big franchise are there. Not really sure why. This level is kind of frustrating until you figure it out but the stacking mechanic is actually a great thing. Text boxes do not reappear and that’s fine since none of their dialogue helps you. Also, the text boxes in this level are normal now and it’s clear that there was some kind of slow down in the last area for some reason.
Then there’s a third level. The dialogue here still doesn’t give us anything for the story except for the last one that talks about grandpa who was talked about before with the glowing dog. We are then shown an animation that lingers on for far too long and overstays it’s welcome. I had to turn it off. Don’t know if there’s more after that part but I wasn’t going to waste anymore time. You could hear laughing while it’s showing as well. Seemed like a joke but there’s a problem when the joke goes on for too long or doesn’t serve any purpose or have any hook, line, and sinker.
Even though the game appears to be experimental in nature, it's interesting and I would give it a go if it doesn't lagg.
After watching a bit of the 5mg playthrough, it appears that the slow down was just me but I couldn’t have possibly been the only to have experienced the game this way, could I? And if there are some people who have experienced it, would they comment about it? So yeah, I’m not sure what to feel about the game lagging anymore. I guess I just had a bad experience with the game.
